Back in the 90s, my mother used to tell me video games were a waste of time, how I'd never get anywhere by playing them.
Today I get to tell her about professional gaming tournaments, and how most contestants are full-time competitive gaming "athletes" who make a fair living off of the prize money. She doesn't quite know what to say to that. It's very satisfying.
Now, on the flip side, I don't really enjoy any of the games that are played in tournaments, so not one bit of that applies to me. :P
